It probably was supposed to have been. See that big hump going down the middle of the car? And don't forget, when it used to be the 810 and 1st Gen- those cars were RWD...

I could throw a few wise cracks, but in the end I basically drive a car identical to you everyday so.. It's like hurling jokes at myself which isn't my usual leisure time activity.

- What color to powder coat my rims is next. If I make them black I know you'll be on me, perhaps with that big single turbo

perfect justification for a hood scoop, or some type of hood augmentation to get air to the turbo.

you can still have one turbo and it be 'fun'. as long as you get the right size + the right other mods.

Hood scoop = No sleeper. But with all that noise it doesn't matter.

waste gate and/or BOV would be the dead give away anyway. Plus the larger exhaust would be a hint, if the intercooler in the front didnt give it all away.

I'm pro twin, but not fawkin sequential as pre-mentioned.. Parallel is the way of the boost. Unless you wanna peaky son of a b1tch that has a lot of lag and a lot of power. Sure one GT30/GT35 depending on A/R is going to be decent with not as much lag. But I'd much rather have twin GT28's running if at all possible (I'm using the RB26 as an example).

Now because I have a RB25, the work for a TT setup is dumb when you can just re-route a bit for a bigger single turbo.


.. GT30,GT35R (once again A/R is the key). We could go on forever with compressor maps and all the other nonsense.

I agree with you Apparition, Parrallel setup would be best. I submit the 300zx as exhibit A. Twin Parrallel setup, making good power, starts to spool at 3K, not sure when it hits full boost, but it holds it all the way to the redline. The concept of a sequential turbo setup is ideal, something anyone wanting forced induction would want, unfortuantely it hasnt seemed to work as well as it sounds.

In a lot of cases it is easier to scrap the twin setup for a good manifold with a good flange and slap a decent size single with a good a/r setup for little/no lag
